MasterCraft Boat Tests

MasterCraft has been shaping the boating industry since 1968. More than three decades after the original MasterCraft made its debut, our goal remains the same - to continue building the world's best ski, wakeboard and luxury performance powerboats, year after year. Our Vonore, Tennessee plants are staffed with dedicated professionals, working on your next boat. Visit New World Honda Marine Melbourne today to see latest boat models from MasterCraft.

Please view our available boat tests from MasterCraft from the list below:

MasterCraft X-14

Words - Kevin Poulter

MasterCraft boats are designed as high performance, excitement skiboats and the X-14 at 21ft4in (6.5m) accommodates up to 11 people. With sleek lines and liquid curves reminiscent of an expensive sports car, the X-14 looks fast, confirmed by the smooth effortless take-off with the big V8 growling.

The hull is configured for flat slalom runs with the throttle forward, or fat, rounded 'wakeboard heaven' wakes with the throttle eased back. A multi-location ballast system adds exactly the desired weight to achieve the ultimate waves. In fact some MasterCraft owners take surfers out for a hands-free ride. Starting the tow with a rope, they surf until they reach the 'sweet spot' on the wave, then the rope is relinquished, for almost unlimited surfing.

MasterCraft X5 and ProStar 190

Words - David Granville

MasterCraft's X5 and ProStar 190 may score a 'perfect 10'. But a bruised and battered Aussie dollar determines that we live in a far from perfect world, says David Granville

They say practice makes perfect... So after producing more than 35,000 boats over the past 30 years, is MasterCraft building the 'perfect' skiboat? I'm not certain the 'perfect' boat exists, as most boaties have their own personal whims; however it's hard to score these boats with anything but a '10'.

MasterCraft X-2, X-7, X-14, X-Star

We usually do our boat reviews one at a time, so it was pretty impressive to see four pretty exclusive boats all lined up side by side.

Harley Clifford, Mastercraft’s pro rider representative in Australia, was also along for the trip, showing his stuff behind the big X-Star.

As well as the flagship X-Star, which comes in at around $100,000, there was an X-7, X-2 and X-14. A pretty mouth-watering line-up, to be sure.
